It depends on the type of treatment being performed. In most cases, you do not need to leave your home during treatment. However, we may recommend that you leave your home for a few hours if a more extensive treatment is required.

The length of a pest control treatment depends on the type and severity of the pest infestation. Most treatments take between 30 minutes to 2.5 hours.

Any pesticide or insecticide is toxic whether natural or manmade. They are designed to be toxic to insects. Are they toxic to humans? it depends on the dosage. Swiss physician and chemist Paracelsus expressed the basic principle of toxicology: “All things are poison and nothing is without poison; only the dose makes a thing not a poison.” This is often condensed to: “The dose makes the poison.” It means that a substance that contains toxic properties can cause harm only if it occurs in a high enough concentration. In other words, any chemical—even water and oxygen—can be toxic if too much is ingested or absorbed into the body. The toxicity of a specific substance depends on a variety of factors, including how much of the substance a person is exposed to, how they are exposed, and for how long. Apples, Pears, Patatoes, and Courgettes, all contain chemicals that are toxic to humans. However, they are usually present in very small amounts far below the harmful dose. Just because a chemical is present does not mean that it is harmful in the amount present. Information credited to chemcialsafetyfacts.org

Although we try our best, wasps are difficult to prevent from forming a nest and they are not as common as other pests. If you have a wasp nest and we are out at your home or business for your regular service then we will treat it for free. If we have to come out then you will be charged, but the price will be lower than that of a new customer. We could include wasps into our pest management plan, but then we would have to raise the cost of the plan to cover expenses. Wasps won't form a nest on your home or property every year, so you would just be paying for an insurance policy, which would cost you more overtime than if we charged you one time to treat the wasps nest. As for German roaches and bedbugs they are hitchhikers. They can come into your home or business by means of your belongings. Fleas are ectoparasites which are brought in your home by pets or rodents.  

 We recommend scheduling pest control services at least once a quarter to prevent pest infestations and ensure long-term protection.
